Leaving For Kazakhstan

Today we leave for Kazakhstan! We will be traveling for 24 hours to get to Amsterdam, where the entire team will meet up and spend a lovely day walking the city and getting to know each other.
Please pray that the team blends well together. Every individual is extremely wonderful and very accomodating, so I am positive they will all have fun. Pray that we can sleep on the plane and be rested for an exciting time of getting to know each other in Amsterdam!
The team has a Kazakhstan journal and each day on the journal has a verse or qote for encouragement, so i thought it would be great for you all to follow along with us and know what we are reading and talking about.
Today's Verse:
"THE LORD HIMSELF GOES BEFORE YOU AND WILL BE WITH YOU; HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU, DO NOT BE AFRAID; DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED."
DEUTERONOMY 31:8

Yes i have been praying! So...excited about what God will do through each one of you. Chris i know my advice was "no expectations" but i did for get one thing you can expect. That would be for God to show up in ways you will not be looking for. Even when things SEEM not to go as planned HE is there in that and has a purpose for HIS glory. LOVE you all and wish i was there.
